Recipe Description | Lamb broiled or grilled on skewer. |
Instructions | It tastes best when made with very young spring lamb. |
Broil the skewered meat over charcoal on their |
braziers or Gas grill or broiler oven. The juices which |
drip during the broiling are caught inside a loaf of |
Arabic bread. When the meat is done, it is slipped off |
the skewer into the bread. |
Cut meat into one-inch cubes. Season with salt and |
pepper and let stand for an hour. Spear on to skewers, |
allowing six pieces of meat per person. Alternate lean |
and fatty meat with onions. Broil under a very hot |
flame, or over charcoal until outside is well browned |
and sizzling. If broiled in the oven, sprinkle a little |
olive oil over meat before broiling so that it will not dry |
out. Excellent accompaniments to this meat are laban |
and hummus bi tahini and baba ghannouj. |
